Axis camera can't connect

For some reason I can't connect to the axis camera, it is hooked up to port 2 on the cRIO, the cRIO is hooked up to my computer with wireless and firewall off, I have my static ip set to 192.168.0.11, and the Axis camera setup can't connect to it. Also the RSL is blinking, and the Axis camera setup has a green light next to "Camera found at 192.168.0.90 ?"

Hey,

I think when you are using the Axis Camera Setup tool you want to have the axis camera connected directly to the computer, not through the cRIO. The tutorial on the LabVIEW getting started window is a good list of steps to walk through. Additionally if you haven't downloaded the most recent utilities update I would get that or the settings you set up in the Axis Camera tool won't persist after a power cycle.

I got the camera set up, and now I am unable to connect to the cRIO through the driver station, it shows up in MAX, and the RSL is blinking.

Hmmm, have you tried setting it up with the axis connected to the bridge instead of the second ethernet port of the cRIO? I would start by giving that a shot.  What IP addresses are the axis camera, cRIO and driver station computer using?

In the begin VI there is a constant that is set for the vision stuff. You need to make sure that you change the constant if you are changing the camera location.
